One Day Seminar - Force Measurement Using Piezoelectric Sensors
06/09/2011 Email to a friend   Comment on this article
Although piezoelectric sensor technology has many advantages over other types of sensor technologies, there is a lack of understanding of the technology and the benefits. This one day seminar by Kistler Instruments will cover both the theory and practical application of piezoelectric sensors.

One Day Seminar   Force Measurement Using Piezoelectric SensorsKistler Instrumente AG based in Winterthur, Switzerland has been at the forefront of piezoelectric sensor technology since 1950 when Walter P Kistler patented a charge amplifier which made the technology a practical method for measuring physical parameters. Kistler has remained a major innovator in the application of the technology and now has subsidiaries throughout the world.

This seminar is designed to provide an introduction to the practical application of piezoelectric measurement in both laboratory and industrial environments. An understanding of the technology is essential for all those responsible for designing and building instrumentation and measurement systems, especially where challenging environmental conditions may be encountered. A major quality of piezoelectric sensors is the ability to withstand harsh operating conditions combined with exceptionally long life.

The subjects to be covered include:
► Design, principles & benefits of piezoelectric sensors.
► A practical exercise on fitting & mounting a force sensor.
► Charge signal conditioning and system integration.
► Calibration and measurement.
